Philippians 3: In Pursuit of the Prize (pt3 of 3)

October 21, 2013 By coordinator

This chapter ends with a warning to all whose end is not Christ, who are not straining forward for the prize of Christ. Phil 3:18-21 [READ] If Christ is not your end, then your life will end in destruction. Paul reiterates this point from the opposite vantage point. If Christ is the end goal of your life and your citizenship is secure in heaven, what will your life on earth look like?… Read more

What about unexpected prizes like winning a raffle ticket at a social function? We’re happy because we didn’t expect it but we got a prize anyway. Or did you ever get an unexpected check in the mail from some lawsuit that you didn’t even know you were a part of.… Read more

How much do you consider your life worth to yourself?

March 14, 2010 By ray

I want to continue my reflection on Apostle Paul — he was clearly heavenbound in his thinking and actions. That is why he could say in Acts 20:24 – 24However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace.… Read more
